Man this has been bad ... I've refrained from posting anything new till this gets resolved ... heck, it'd probably get lost in the spam mess

Apoogies - spammers went to town over the weekend. Caught us on the hop. Should be clear now.

...spambots started to send private messages now here at the flowstone forum, at least i got one. the subject was "hallo" (hey what a friendly bot, he´s greating me in my native language!) and the content of the mail was the usual bla bla bla with a link that suggests to be a amazon link, but of course it´s not.

Report this to devs; if it's starting to go on that level - it may become a bigger issue for all of us.
